This series consists of four 1-hour-long programs building off of each other. Students are encouraged to keep a journal through the course of this series to build their observation skills and knowledge. We are flexible on scheduling if you want weekly, monthly, etc. This is a great way to get students excited to learn about animals! Recommended for 1st grade and up and aligned with Next Generation Science Standards!

In this program, we will dive into the characteristics that define raptors and why they are important to our ecosystems. Audiences will discover the various types of birds of prey found all over the world, what it takes to care for a bird of prey, and learn how Nature's Educators is permitted to keep raptors. The audience will learn about their personal histories, anatomy, hunting strategies, and habitats.

We are able to do educational talks/shows and host tables for Renaissance Festivals, Resorts, and other special events. If you are interested in having us out to do stage shows, host a tent/table, or do continuous programming, please reach out! We are able to travel (including other states) and are flexible with scheduling events such as these. We call this "Edutainment!"

We are able to host an interactive and educational booth for your event, fair, festival, organization, etc. Bring some extra excitement to your event by having live birds of prey and/or reptiles present.

Animals have different adaptations to live in different habitats. Each animal has a job or "niche" in its habitat to help keep the ecosystem going. In this program, we will learn about various adaptations animals have to survive in their environments.

Nocturnal and crepuscular animals have different features and behaviors to help them be active at night. For this popular program, we will learn about creatures that are active at night. We will bring an owl and a few other creepy-crawly critters to help show off their amazing adaptations! *This program is perfect for Halloween!*

Reptiles and Amphibians (herptiles) are amazing creatures! Discover what herptiles eat, find out where they live, and all their adaptations! Meet a handful of live herptiles up close!

The rocky mountain and prairie states have an incredibly diverse group of wildlife and ecosystems! In this program, learn what makes your state's habitats such a great place for some of our feathered, scaly, and slimy neighbors. Meet animal ambassadors that are true natives! Geared toward CO, WY, NE, KS, and NM.
